Topic: Power Or Money ? - page 10. (Read 2803 times)

Even sluts will not fuck every single man they meet on the street. They are selective to a certain degree.

Prostitutes don't get to be selective. They are forced to have sex, since they get money for doing it.

It's a job, just like serving meals in McDonalds. Would you serve an unpleasant person if you didn't get a salary for it? I know I wouldn't.

That was my whole point... it wasn't that hard to figure it out.

Money enables people to do things they would never do otherwise.

An organized society of 8 billion people is impossible to exist without money (any form of money, USD, BTC, whatever).

Small tribes of 150 people? Yeah, those exist in Andaman islands for example. But they're not the majority anymore. We don't live in 50.000 BCE.

Money enables, yes. However, in the US and lots of places in Europe, there are women we would call 'sluts'. Most of them are young... late teens and early twenties. But some are quite young... barely into their teens... who do it for the experience. Many of them are hoping for a family later on, and have never been taught about honor, and the honorable way of doing things. Many others are doing it for the self-gratification a young person gets from having a youthful, healthy body, and feeling soooo good with the experience.

It isn't really prostitution. But it might be way worse. If a good and honorable guy or gal wants to find someone who is virgin, how in the world can he figure out if he has one or not? Go with a person for a year without sex. If they are willing to "last" that long, maybe they are for real.

If money/capitalism didn't exist, would they do it?

Would they have sex with tons of strangers just for fun?

Nobody has answered this...

My answer:

Money enables prostitution to exist. Women would NOT do it for free. They have no benefit to do so.

If somebody wants to be a prostitute and is allowed, that's called freedom. It's the results that make that person a slave.

So, how do we make a society that allows freedom. and doesn't allow slavery at the same time? There are three steps to this:
1. Figure out what society has to be like to do this;
2. Advertise it with good explanations;
3. Punish those who disobey, and reward those who obey.

Number 1, above, has already been done for us. It's in the 2nd thru the 5th books of the beginning of the Bible... Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. God gave the info to Moses to give to the people, the main stuff on Mount Sinai, and the rest of it during the 40 years that Israel wandered in the desert.

Because the ceremonial laws that Moses gave the people were fulfilled in Jesus, we don't need those laws any longer... except if we are Jews trying to obey what God made for the Jews. But the civil laws are just about the best that there are. And ancient Israel at the time of Joshua shows how these laws are to be obeyed. These laws include the Ten Commandments ahead of all the rest.

Back at the time that the US was set up, the theme of the Constitution was built on the skimpiest basics of the civil laws of Moses. Why the basics? Because at that time most of the people in America worshiped God, and understood the laws of Moses. However...

We of the US aren't any different than the people of Israel after Moses and Joshua died. Israel turned away from the laws, but came back to God when they were punished enough. And it is the same way with the people of the US.

This time in the US, many people don't understand the laws of God any longer. They have listened to the advertising of a bunch of jokers who don't even want to listen to the idea that God exists. God will save His people, but it might take the destruction of the US to clean out the unbelievers.

I dont know which culture and society supports prostitution 
There are more disadvantages than advantages of this profession - and at the end these women has so much psychological and physical problems that they have to leave all this to go to an isolated life.

I am not in favor of prostitution; I am against it. However...

We could all avoid a lot of interference by government in money affairs if we simply did this. Set up a trust or corporation or LLC to own our money. We ourselves would be the controller or trustee or president. We would have wording in the 'entity' which gave us the ability to transfer the control to someone else. Simply transfer the control to somebody else when we want to buy something.

The artificial entity still has the money; there was no exchange of money for anything. Since the 'entity' is considered to be a person by government, there isn't any personal tax to it for exchanging money. And, there isn't any regulation for doing nothing.

Many rich people use this method all the time to avoid taxation legally. This shows that power is greater than money.

Sound money, not fiat/QE money.

Money is materialized (crystalized) product of past power (labor, efforts, fraud, forceful action times the time).

I want money and I want a lot of money - I have a lot of plans which only needs fund to complete not the power.
But at the end money instantly bring the power.
Power is lethal - it brings pride and ego along -so does money- if you are not going to control it will control you

I want power. Both of them are just similar, but I will go for power because with power you can command and get money, but sometimes even with your money, you may not be able to have the power, especially if the power you are seeking for are with other powerful people who may not be able to release it.
A statement says power corrupts but absolute power corrupts absolutely. Also money does the same thing . But it is better you have both power and money in moderation.

Yet another woke idiot... meh!

You should first know that prostitution solely involves the solicitation of sexual services for money.
There are male prostitutes as well.
If women or men do it for free, money doesn’t change hands and therefore can’t be regarded as such.
Do you ask questions like this for the fun of it?

power or money?

both are very influential in this life,
if someone has both that's great,

but sometimes that power and money is misused
be a bad thing

and sometimes power is used as an opportunity to steal money or corruption, that is also very bad
 
so in my opinion if only power and money is not enough there should be an addition that is

conscience

if we had power, money and conscience,
that would be a wonderful thing.

I want someone to answer this question honestly:

Would there be porn and prostitution WITHOUT money/capitalism?

Would women do it for free?

And no, I don't mean having sex just for fun with men of their preference.

Money isn’t everything. Admittedly, money could buy you a certain level of power but you forget not everyone is swayed or can be bought by money. You definitely can not earn power with money. Perhaps you should understand what it means to earn something.
Money is definitely powerful that can give rise to greed, pride and selfishness.

Power and money goes hand in hand and are entwined together. With money, you could get a certain level of power but with power, you are certain to have a sizable amount of money.
I would opt to have the power over money. I could literally do and change things(for the better) with power but with money, there are limitations on what you could achieve or get done.
  Not everyone is swayed or moved by the whiff of money and i for one would prefer to wield the power than to have all the money in the world. Having money doesn’t exactly give you power

Out of power and money - I would choose Money
i dont want power I just want to have my own private beautiful life.  . . power is expensive and it would end soon.
SO I prefer to be powerful by having  money may be 10 million dollar

Money is just everything.  Money can bring you power , with money power can be earned . I don't think it is possible to have power without having money . Money is powerful than can give birth to power and everything.

ahah I like the picture! and your thoughts as well!

Money! With how the world is corrupt nowadays you can buy as much power as you want with enough money.

Also, power is for those who need envy and respect. I don't need to be a politician or a local leader to be happy in life but I could use some money to not only help my self but also make people around me happy and comfortable.


I agree but we could use some more time on this Earth. I accept that I'll die but I'd like to at least become old. 90+ without losing my mind in the process would be satisfying and money can help with that. Healthy eating, good doctors, medicine, it's all for people with money.
